Directions:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F
- Mix together molasses, oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic in a small bowl.
- Smear the inside of the chicken's cavity with ~1/3 of the mixture.
- Stuff the cavity with the fresh herbs. Smear the outside of the chicken with the remaining mixture. Truss the chicken, if desired.
- Roast the chicken until the temperature in the thickest part of the thigh reads 165 degrees F. For a small fryer start checking temperature after 45 minutes.
- Allow chicken to rest 10-15 minutes before carving.
- Enjoy that mahogany skin!
- *I've used roasters (5-7 lb chickens) and broilers/fryers (2-1/2 to 5 pounds) with this recipe. Both work well, but when I want to use my rotisserie I'm stuck with the fryers because nothing else will fit. Of course cooking time will vary depending on the size of your bird.
